Thanking you.

linnet think thats so here it is merry christmas

Winters Tale - David Essex
December will be magic again - Kate Bush
Ring Out Solstice Bells - Jethro Tull
Carol Of The Bells - er....some choir

Its funny, one Christmas I realised my son had hidden I had misplaced my Christmas cd

Jona Lewie - Stop the Cavalry

TillyMint ~waves~ it's a long lost LJ person here, pixiepillz

How are you?

Jethro Tull - 'A Christmas Song' - especially the very end!

Thanks Borderslass, I wasn't sure if that was the title or not.

Definitely Fairytale of New York - I'm going to see The Pogues at the Brixton Academy in a couple of weeks, can't wait to hear them do that song live!

Also love Mariah's version of O Holy Night

Thanks everyone.

Have started downloading.

Christmas Wrapping by The Waitresses!

Fairytale of New York - got to be my all time fav

It's Christmaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaas

I saw The Pogues do Fairy Tale of NY when Kirsty Mcoll was still with us..it was brilliant.

The Waitresses' Christmas Wrapping does it for me as well though.

Fairytale of NY
Happy christmas (war is over)... Lennon
2000 miles... Pretenders

The Pogues greatest hits is what I always play while cooking on Christmas Eve, beats Nine lessons and carols every time. For me thats christmas started

Oh I LOVE The Waitresses Christmas Wrapping - I heard the intro in a shop the other day and was instantly beaming - love it - that jangly guitar sound is so joyful.

Also Greg Lake's "I Believe in Father Christmas" - a tad pompous but the sleigh bells are a winner.

And even though it is a bit cheesy, there's just something about Jonah Lewie's "Stop the Cavalry" - the brass band, Sally Army sound and yet again the sleigh bells.

December will be Magic Again (Kate Bush) - just fabulous.

I have a soft spot for Elton John's Step Into Christmas.

I love all these AND S Club 7's Perfect Christmas

Bellissima - thank you. You're absolutely right! ...and I don't like either of them.

So anyone - what IS the Xmas song where the girl ends up going out for cranberry sauce and meets the guy she's been lusting after?

Very disappointed.
Started a thread on this very topic last night, went on to slay it myself.
Now I see this thread in discussions of the day!

AIBU to be deeply hurt, shocked and upset?

Anyway mine are : Fairytale of NY
and I adore the Frog Chorus.

Let it Snow.

Love the hymns, too. Silent Night, Once in Royal David's city, O Little Town of Bethlehem particular favourites.

Adore this one - gives me goosebumps.

I'm an atheist, btw

Sorry wukter . It was still November last night.. that's why your thread died. You should have waited just 12 more hours!

Oh I love Once In Royal David's City. Would never have remembered that one!

InmyheadIminParis - the girl buying cranberry sauce who runs into her guy is in Christmas Wrapping by the Waitresses. Terrific song.

My top 5:
the above, Christmas Wrapping
Stop the Cavalry
Last Christmas
Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas
Do They Know It's Christmas
